Quoting stormchaser43:What a snow event. 36 inches as predicted by the NAM. If this really does come true, I think it is safe to say we can all throw out the climate change goofiness. Okay, the hardcore will still be relentlessly clinging on to AGWT, but realistically it's probably safe to say that Global Warming / Climate Change is a theory that has not ever come true.

naw you see with GW you get more increased levels of water vapour in the atmosphere which likly leads to copious amounts of precip in storm events on the surface which in turn leads to excessive rainfall totals snowfall totals in high impact events such as we shall see here [link to www.wunderground.com]

Some times I have to wonder why you all make a big thing out of this??? I lived in Maine most of my life time what you guys call lots of snow is a drop in the bucket. Gosh get a freaken life. It's Maine for crying out loud we are use to 5 feet of snow in any storm, and we also are use to -40 degree temps, so please don't make a big thing about it. I have seen 3 feet of snow fall on Thanksgiving day. Don't worry Maniacs know how to cope. People in upper NY state know how to cope with it believe me, it happens every single year. Been that way ever since people have lived there.

You gotta understand down south in the U.S. including Washington DC, in southern England [London] and elsewhere, they get 1-2" of snow or sleet and they freak the fuck out. If they got the kind of snow even cities like NYC and Boston get in the northeast, let alone northern New England and upstate NY, they'd have a stroke.

I know ever since I moved to North Carolina, I have found out that 2 inches of snow closes down the whole state. Its a great laugh for me. I enjoy sitting in my home and watching one accident behind the other at the intersection here. Its great entertainment. Of course I know better then to drive when we get snow here because the folks around here don't know how to drive on snow. Don't need some moron killing me lol

I bet that you don't live in the Mountains of North Carolina because you wouldn't be bashing like this. Some parts up there are just like New England weather except worse. More ice storms for sure.Way worse drives in North considering. Big mouth northerners too!!

Why do they move down south from the North when all they do is complain about the south. I would think that they would stay in the Great North where everything is so much better.

A human-headed snake was claimed to be found in a small town in Pahang.

Some Bahau residents captured video clips of the human-headed snake during their visit. When they showed the video clips to the others in Bahau, everyone was asking the same question: Does such thing really exist?

The video clips showed a snake curled up on a table. It possessed a python body and a human-liked head with a pair of eyes, a mouth and hair. It looked old and there was a pair of skinny legs beneath its head.

Yesterday I visited a few New Jersey towns located on the barrier islands affected by Super Storm Sandy. I used to envy the people who could afford to live on the beach in their mansions. No more.

I cannot imagine what those people went through when they saw their homes missing or crushed. It's been three months and police are still patroling and blocking the streets in some of these communities. There is so much damage. Construction crews are still digging some of these homes out of the sand and leveling the properties. It's sad.
